This is a mix I managed to extract from one remaining copy of a cd I still had. This CD was in pretty rough shape, and the process to get it onto this soundcloud page was more taxing then I realized it was going to be. In the end, my will to preserve the mix proved greater than the obstacles to doing so, so here it is.  The first track on the mix is plagued by some staticy-ticks that lose intensity as we get into the first breakdown of that first track. If you can bear with that, its ok from there.

If you asked me then who "influenced this mix," I would have dropped some pretty predictable Global Underground names. But, the truth is, my biggest influences were those closest to me. Damian, Rojas, Dao, Omar, Peter, the Whites , Josh, Bob, Arthur, Hypatia, Bryon, Chris...all these local djs who watered our local Reading soil over the last 20 plus years. I have enjoyed the journey immensely...here is a mix from the beginning.

This was put together sometime in 2000 on two tech 12's and a Pioneer DJM500.
